Create USB printer manually
When you configure monitoring for a printer using the DCA and Cloud Connector agent, it will automatically be monitored by the portal.
However, you can also add a printer to the portal manually.
Who can use this feature
Users with the Admin or Create printers permissions
Instructions
Access the Monitoring > Printers menu
Click on the ✚ button in the top right corner
Enter the printer information (required fields are highlighted with a red asterisk)
Manually registered printers have no status until they start sending meter data automatically. To monitor this communication, you can choose to link the printer to a monitoring agent.
To do this, in the Do you want to link the printer to a monitoring agent? field, select Yes. Then select the desired agent from the list.
Click the Save button to create the printer and return to the grid, or the Save and Create button to create the printer and remain on the creation screen
If you register a printer manually, it will be created as managed and not monitored.
